---------------------------------

             Summary: cordova-create fail to copy template on Windows when nodejs global node_modules where it is installed in is in a different directory than the default one (AppData\Roaming)
                 Key: CB-13588
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13588
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: cordova-create
            Reporter: Lukas Plachy


If the npm is run without the wrong(*) content in npmrc, then as you may see, cordova create fails again in the very same way, even when the npm is allready able to work as expected. correct__g_install_fail_npmrc.png
If you are not comfort with the "local install" override, or the npmrc content deletition, then you might find the command '*npm install -g cordova --prefix D:\mynodejsdirectory*' more compliant with correct usage. And as you may see (correct__g_install_fail_using_prefix.png), the error which this ticket is about, remains in place in all three soltuions I have presented you here, despite the '-g' install. So I still have to insist on the fact, that there is someting wrong in Cordova code.

*)  incorrect handling of npmrc file containing the string 'prefix=${APPDATA}\npm' in contrast to the expected behvaior as described in https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/npm#directories
